This is the easiest, most refreshing salad, fab on its own, or as a side. The combination of watermelon, black olive & feta is just inspired. Trust me on this.
Serves 6 (as a side)
Ingredients:
1/4 Watermelon - cut into big cubes (If you want to feed more people or make some to keep spare then use more)
3 big sticks of feta (a little less than half a pack)
70g (1 packet) of stoned black olives (I use the Crespo packs you can get from most shops)
2 large handfuls of dark salad greens (rocket or watercress is best)
Handful of seeds - I like black sesame seeds but you could have sunflower or pumpkins seeds
Juice of 1 lime or lemon
Olive oil
Handful of chopped mint
Salt & pepper
Method:
Cut your watermelon into big cubes, I like to remove the seeds but if you can’t be bothered then don’t!
Lay out your salad greens onto a large flat platter
Top with watermelon
Roughly chop your black olives and sprinkle onto salad
Crumble over your feta
Sprinkle with your seeds and mint
Squeeze over your lime, drizzle with olive oil & season with salt & pepper
Give it a good toss before serving
